My experience with Brookdale was very nice, my mom was there for 5 months before she passed! The care my mom received while there was very caring, when she passed the staff all hugged and it showed real care. I would recommend Brookdale!

Big city care but small town friendly

Staff is friendly. Food is very good considering they cook for so many. Faculty is just the right size so it's not intimating for the residents.

Why I picked Brookdale Tavares assisted living.

My sister in law had a number of falling experiences over several years that required hospitalization & rehab. She was also in the early years of Dementia and her husband had passed away 5 years earlier. She is 92 and couldn’t care for herself in almost every way. I researched over 60 places close to my home. I didn’t want a place with too few residents or one with so many the she was just another #. Brookdale Tavares was just the right size for the staff to know everyone, flexible enough to tailor their support to an individuals needs, big enough to have a variety of activities for residents to participate in, secure enough residents with Dementia not to leave on their own. Meeting areas for activities, playing piano or organ music, dining & big screen TV with comfortable seating. The staff are easy to communicate with, always in touch with me if need be. The suites are nice, the rates are competitive, it’s a small single story building simple for residents to navigate easily.

Very helpful moving resident in and keeping family informed. Staff is courteous and willing to help with resident needs. I would highly recommend this facility be entrusted with the care of a loved one who can no longer live by themselves.

Peace of mind.

The staff there is very friendly and helpful. My mother has adjusted very well. We picked this community, because of the cost, the size of the assisted living, and cleanliness. I would definitely recommend to others.

Professional Nursing Home Care

I am pretty dissapointed. My friend is happy with the food and activities, but I am not too happy with the service. The bed is not always changed, and my friend is not getting regular showers. For the amount of money being paid, we are not getting the amount of care that is needed. It seems like, no one is doing any personal care for the residents.

Terrible

This place is terrible. Staff if very rude and have terrible attitudes. I have a medical and religious exemption to a facemask that causes harm. Title 18 u.s.c 242 " whosoever under any law, statute ,ordinances, religion or custom, willfully subjects any person in any state shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years. One should look elsewhere if you truly care about your loved ones

A friendly small knit community

The meals and dinning are really good. They do not have a whole lot of activities due to it being a smaller community. But they do have some activities for the residents. It is a small community and they are very caring and everyone knows each other. I really like the fact that they have individual areas and suites including a kitchen area and more for the residents.

Would definitely recommend

The staff members and care services they provided are excellent. What really stood out to us was the smallness of the community. It has a very homey feeling to it, very compacted. It does not feel like a large institutional community.

I would and have recommended them, just get the detail clear

We chose Brookdale Tavares because we needed to make a quick decision and they had availability at the time when we needed it, it is also a smaller facility which is what she liked. All in all the people are friendly and the cleanliness and the size of the rooms are what really pushed me here. I think they could use improvement on communication, she is in FL and I am in NC, so I wish they would communicate with me a little bit better about changes on medications. She has Alzheimer's so it is hard to get information from her. But overall I would recommend to others looking.
